Follow Newsd On
According to the TomTom Traffic Index, Mumbai is the most traffic-congested city in the world. Another research also suggests that Mumbaikars have spent anywhere around 10-15 days in a year simply being stuck in traffic.
A recently released list of ‘World’s Most Traffic-Congested Cities’, Mumbai was ranked fourth among the 419 cities analysed by TomTom’s Traffic Index.
A report prepared by location technology specialist TomTom, which also supplies maps for Apple and Uber, said that “Mumbai takes the top spot this year with drivers in the Indian city expecting to spend an average of 65 per cent extra travel time stuck in traffic. Next in the global rankings are Bogota (63 per cent), Lima (58 per cent), New Delhi (58 per cent) and Moscow (56 per cent), making up the top five most congested cities in the world.”
A report belonging to the IDFC Institute also states Mumbaikars waste 55% of their commuting time stuck in traffic, with the situation only worsening during the rainy season.
